I've been trying to find somewhere near Elizabethtown Ky to buy some chicks to raise, I hens for their eggs. I will need lots of help since I don't know anything except what I read. Thanks Greg
Welcome to BYC! This is a fantastic resource for anything you have questions about. You can also check out the Kentucky thread for more local questions.
Hi Greg, it's nice to have you here! Under the Articles tab, you'll find the Learning Center...it's full of great info that can help you get started: Learning Center
I've seen quite a few people mention chicks are selling quickly this year. Have you checked with your local TSC to see when they may have some available (or when more are coming in)? You can also check the Buy-Sell-Trade forum and maybe you'll find some close by your location: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/chicks-1-day-to-8-weeks-old.53/
Welcome to the forum. Check out the learning center articles, they are very helpful. Also, please think hard about if you really want chickens, or just eggs. Owning chickens can be fun and very rewarding for it's own sake, but those eggs are not cheap.I hope you do, chickens are great, but also work, and heartbreak sometimes. You are off to a great start joining here, anyway.
